I refuse to believe there's a time where Noel Hunt isn't trying to start a row. His first 4 minutes of his International debut I was convinced he was going to do a Noel Campbell.

It's even more obvious in their stadium with a giant white on green Waitrose banner right behind them.

Just out of curiosity, any ideas how much these teams make by putting huge logos on the shirts? I really don't think I could bring myself to buy a giant advert (but I'll really want some classic ones).

Any team advertising either a Gambling firm or Alcohol (which is the vast majority) will offer a sponsorless one if you ask them. And about £60 million over 4 years was what AIG paid Manchester United. ESPN Barca could probably get the same but donated theirs to UNICEF, Villa are sponsored by ACORNS (A local charity) and Real Madrid used to be sponsored by Real Madrid.com That's all I can remember for sponsorship.

The impression I get is that teams have little say in the actual design of the kits (other than colors/sponsors of course). Is that the case? If so, who actually designs them? Puma/Nike/etc.?

s0meb0dy0 posted:^^^ I mentioned picking based upon the kit and you suggest Everton? Are you insane?? they'll have these kits for two years at most - the pink and black away will probably be gone next year. The common tie is colors and crest - the specific style will change, and the design will change within a certain range. It seems like the teams are provided designs by their kit manufacturers and have a back-and-forth dialogue and design process. How big the club is and what kind of deal with the kit supplier they have usually determines how much the kit is tailored for the team. A big Nike team like Arsenal or Manchester United are going to have more say in their design than, say, the New Zealand national team (who also have Nike).

I had a moment of "Oh, hang on..." when at the Chelsea game I looked about and saw it's the same green as the Waitrose adverts around the stadium. I pondered if we were becoming Waitrose FC. But having seen Emirates FC playing at the Emirates Stadium, used their Emirates toilets, had an Emirates nacho box and got smiled at by the Emirates air hostesses while Emirates Wiltshire knocked the Emirates ball into the Emirates net and people were told to wave their Emirates caps to see if they could get on the Emirates big screen, I decided the away kit's really in the shallow end of sponsorship compared to some poor bastards.
